                                          Beautiful Rose

Like a flower
Slowly unfolding
Petal by petal
I am holding
You in my hands
You in my eyes
In my arms tonight

I can feel you
Well up within
Call and response
Of body and skin
Of your breathing and mine
Of your heart and mine
Of your soul and mine
How you blossom
And I gravitate
Toward your center
You're intoxicating
Me with your touch
Me with your love
I feel so much

I can hear
The rhythm of your heart
There's nothing to fear
Nothing we can't chart
Like stars in the sky
Like ships, you and I
Love won't pass us by
